Today she works leading University Relations for Biogen. Meghan helps students and early career talent realize the breadth of potential careers within the biotech industry, and builds a talent bench filled with different backgrounds and perspectives. In her current role, she’s a relationship manager, a marketer, a talent liaison, a confidante, a connector, and a tactical executor.

In her free time, Meghan loves spending time outdoors with her best pal and four-legged sidekick, Thor. You’ll also find her at a weekly spin class, exploring Boston, and during football season, cheering on the Patriots.
